I'm making pot roast for dinner. Lunch is at friends, and then I go to another friend's house to celebrate the engagement of her son. That leaves her down to one daughter, who is dating now (in the Orthodox community, dating=looking for spouse.) Then there is the synagogue Chanukah party, which will be a magician, pizza, donuts and arts and crafts. Very kid-oriented. Nevertherless, I'm on the board and we will be there. With my knitting, thank you very much. (We have become "pillars of the community." *Shakes head.*)
Sunday night, *my* family (Mom, stepfather and brother) is coming to us, and I shall finally make the required latkes, along with fish chowder. And to light the last eight lights.
